Dots About the waterworks.

Yesterday, 1 learned some facts about
the WaterwOrks cOmrany that may
prove interesting to the public. Three
Thousand families take water from the
company at their residences. Both rail-
roads use the water OF the company, but
there arr no means Of telling the guam
tity used per day BY them. A meter has
been put In ut the Lone Star brewery,
and 1t showed daily consumption Of
q, 600 gallons. ThiR meter cost 800 -four
hundred dollars.
rhe company has fifty men at work on
an Improvement at the head OF the river,
that Is intended to convey the water
from the spring into the reservoir with
greater expedition.
The incomes and profits arising from
the water supplied, are totally INSULT
cient to pay for the improvement, which
the waterwOrks company is constantly
making, SO that the company is CON-
PEELED to borrow money with which to
make the necessary improvements. Ii
will probably require an expenditure Of
100000 to supply all the streets In the
city with water. The company keeps
quite number Of hands at work all the
time. 4. F.

HE WAS A FORGER.
Trasker's Little Escapades in Philadel-
phia, San Antonio and Ell Paso.

Trasker's Little Escapades in Philadel-
phia, San Antonio and Ell Paso.
In the fall OF 1885, Charles p. Trasker,
OF the prominent city OF Philadelphia,
was In the city. He was accompanied
by q wife. beautiful girl with whom he
had eloped and whom he had married
against the wishes OF wealthy
friends who then discarded her. While
in this city his many eccentricities
attracted considerable attention, but his
position made him many friends. From
here he went to Ell PasO and 1t was then
found that he had forged note which
was held by Wenzel q Co., Of Philadel-
phia. Other forgeries we're found out,
amounting in all to 500 600.
Frasker got wind Of the discovery, and
skipped TO Mexico leaving his wife with
out funds. He returned In secret TO her,
was then detected and arrested. He was
taken back to Philadelphia, and then as
the money was refunded by friends, and
he had influence he escaped with NOM
inal sentence. When he came out of Jail.
he came back to his faithful wife,
who supported herself bv her
labor during his Incarceration.
Since then he has been guilty, 1t Is
alleged. OF gross cruelty and infidelity,
that she has been obliged to leave him.
Wealthy friends Of Mrs. Trasker have
come TO her assistance, and she has filed
divorce suit In the Philadelphia courts
that promises to be cause oelebro.

HOW 1T WAS SETTLED.

Was Obtained and Disposed of.

The $4,000 for the Sabriegos-How Il
Was Obtained and Disposed of.
There seems to be some misuuder-
standing Ms regards the settlement for
the federal bulldog site that Is well ex-
planned. The Mavericks claimed the
site and were In possession of IL, but
about two iifths OF the said property Is
claimed by the Sabri.gos. and suit for
its recovery Is In the federal court. The
Mavericks could not, and would not.
compromise the matter, because they
believed that IL would affect their legal
status In the said suit, and without n
clear title the government would not
purchase the property. The Ssbriegos
estimated their share OF the property ss
being worth $1,000, but, as IL was re-
qnired for public purposes that would
enhance the value VI the adjoining prop
erty, they were willing to compromise
for half-viz, $1,000 each. Citizens on
Alamo plaza. under Col. Frye, made up
the 5000 and lodged IL In the san Anto-
MO National bsnk, to be paid to the or
der Of Col. Ii. G Shelley, OF Austin, and
Geo. Paschal, OF San Antonio, attorneys
for the Sabriegos, upon the government
acceptance Of the site, but 1t was or
dered that should the government re-
fuse or fail to accept the said site then
the money was TO be returned to sub
scribers in accordance with the specih-
cation contained In q sealed envelope. All
having been arranged, the government
purchase money being paid To the Nav
ericks, the $1,000 referred to, has been
paid over to The Sabriego attorneys.

Fox-Hunting in Connecticut.

From the New Haven Palladium
1t seems surprising that so few New
Haven sportsmen hunt foxes. There is
certainly no larger or more cunning
game in this state. Then, too, the bark
of well-trained hound on q warm fox
track has something exhilarating about
1t, and the excitement of the chase is
constantly kept at a high pitch In the
expectancy that his foxship turn up at
any moment. There is no doubt that u
fox could be started within an hours
ride OF this city almost any morning and
a knowledge OF the country and the runs
which the fox usually, travels In, would
lead to his capture before noon. In the
towns of Northford, North BranfOrd
and Durham are men who seldom hunt
any other game than the red
fox, and who looks with con-
tempt on what they call "bird shoot
ers.' The improbabilities of securing a
fox are in truth much greater than the
chance that shot may be obtained even
at long distance. The fox hunters in
the aforementioned towns, however,
know every rod Of country around their
homes for q radius of l6 miles, and on
any winters day their hounds can be
heard on Paug, Toket, or the West
mountains. Woodoraft is q fevorite sub
jeot with the authors Of the smoothly
written books of deer stalking in the
Adirondacks and the Maine woods; hut
there is no doubt that right here in Con-
necticut there are many true hunters
who use as much skill IN capturing fox
as q Maine half breed would make dis
play Of In attempting to give a New
, York banker = shot at halt-grown doe.

Looking at the beautiful Dullnig block
on one OF the Alamo street corners Of
Commerce street, and the substantial
Alameda block on the other, the Flores
estate on one of the opposite corners,
and the Hertf property on the Other, have
long been eye-sores TO the public. The
LIGHT therefore has great pleasure In re-
cording the fact that desirable change
is coming. The Flores estate which ex-
tends from Seffel's Tin shop to the cor
ner, and runs back to the German Cath
olic church, has been leased for long
term by Joske Brothers, and In a short
time the shanties that distigure the
street, will be torn down, and In their
stead Joske's dry goods palace costing
about $75, 900, will rear its head present.

the beauties OF the city and furnishing

JOske on the success Of their enterprise
and the city upon the prospective addi-
ton OF their handsome building.

sThe Moon and the Earth.

1t was observed by HALEY that the
time of the moons revolutions round
the earth has for several thousand years
been decreasing, or her velocity has
been increasing. This phenomenon re-
manned for considerable time inexpli-
cable; ut last Laplace, in 1857, discov-
cred the causes OF the varying eccen-
tricity Of the earth's orbit, which has
been on the decrease since about $4,000
b. G. Since that time the moon has
been gradually coming nearer TO the
earth, and this will go on till $4,000
years after Christ, when the eccen-
tricity of the esrth's orbit will begin
again to increase.

Jim Mccoy and w. o. Tompkns, McKin-
ney's Murderers, Surrendered to
the Rangers.
The prediction that Jim Mccoy, the
famous one-legged desperate, would
soon be behind the bars has been yeri-
fled, ana he Is now n prisoner at Cotul.
Ia, awaiting justice for his many crimes.
IL appears that Sheriff Fly and Captain
schmidt have been on his trail for sew
eral days and Mccoy used all vigilance
to evade his pursuers, but they we're
close upon him. When his accomplish,
Crenshaw, was killed, he was close at
hand and the bullets that killed one des-
peradO, rung the death knell Of the
other. At this time, he became despOnd-
ent and to make matters worse for him
the stump OF his amputated leg became
infiamed from cold, exposure and over
use, and even II he escaped, death
lurked in Ii in the guise of modification.
He realized the fact that he was ut the
end of his tether, and resolved 10 suTTen-
der rather than die by the way
or perish In his boots, for he had not
Crenshaw's grit. He rested at widow
Jackson's house. There he was arrested
and taken thence to jail.
There was an idea of lynching the
murderer, but the officers were deter
mined that their prisoner should be
dealt with by justice only, and the idea
has, 1t is said, been abandoned.
w. o. Tompkins, who was with
Crenshaw when he was killed, and who
escaped, has surrendered to the rangers.
He Is wanted as an accomplish, but he
says he can prove his innocence. Temp
kins is Crenshaw's nephew.
Deputy Sheriff Edwards who was
wounded when Mckinney was killed is
doing we'll and is able to get around
again.
